    Thanks for making my point. If Democrats are willing to use illegal means to remove that person from office it shows both sides are willing to take extra-legal action to accomplish what they think is right.

    You make ridiculous claims since I do not support such action by either side. So, they get no legitimacy from me. They do get that legitimacy from you who wanted to shoot people for being on federal grazing land and assault a person for a flag or a uniform. That willingness to promote violence fuels both sides and illustrates their obsession with hate.

    The only way Trump could have achieved being a dictator was to do so illegally, so what is your point?

    Well, the problem Flash is that one side already tried to do that, and the other side didn't.

    So what you're doing is pretending the other side WOULD, so that way you can make a bOtHsIdEs argument.

    You're comparing hypothetical with empirical because your lizard brain is just not evolved past binary thinking.

    It's bad faith.

    Wrong, Flash, you legitimize what happened on 1/6 by posturing a hypothetical.

    You bear responsibility.


    They do get that legitimacy from you who wanted to shoot people for being on federal grazing land and assault a person for a flag or a uniform.
    First of all, that's a gross oversimplification of what the Bundy clan actually did.

    They didn't just graze on federal land, they illegally occupied it after refusing to pay FEES for grazing on that land.

    You have this horrible habit of oversimplifying things because your lizard brain isn't evolved enough to go beyond pure binary thinking, or because you have a façade you want to maintain and you do that by oversimplifying or making false equivalencies because your brain cannot handle imbalance. So you leave things out, you deliberately obfuscate the truth, for no other purpose than your own sense of self-satisfaction.

    Clearly a flag causes harm since a judge ordered a woman to remove it because it wasn't in the child's best interests.

    Yes Flash, we know you love Nazis and love hanging around Nazis.

    The point is that you are willing to use illegal means to remove him. Both sides are willing to take illegal action to accomplish their goals.

    At that point, there is no illegality because Trump would have already invalidated all US laws.

    He would need to break the law in order to be a dictator.

    So start there, with his lawbreaking.

    But they were not successful and are not facing the punishment.

    Aren't you saying one side is good and the other is bad? That is binary thinking.

    Trump launches a coup to illegally assume dictatorial powers in the US and according to you, Democrats at that point (Democrats wouldn't even exist at that point because Trump would declare the Democratic Party illegal) would be just as bad as Trump if they tried to throw him out.

    That is how stupid you sound.

    Help me out here. What have the Dems done that is similar to President Trump organizing a violent attack on the Capitol?

    In the scenario where Trump already illegally assumed power, how would removing him from power be "illegal" when the side would be declared illegal by the dictator anyway?

    It was a hypothetical. LV426 said if Trump had been successful and was reinstalled in the presidency and began using dictatorial methods he thinks Democrats would be willing to use illegal methods to remove him. Makes perfect sense--it just shows both parties are willing to use the same methods to achieve "the greater good."
